Stainless Steel Filter Elements for Food & Beverage Industries

Pleated filter elements, also known as stainless steel pleated filter elements, are filter elements that adopts stainless steel woven filter cloth and stainless steel wire cloth as filter medium to form rugged high voids and fixed pore filters with good strength, heat-resistance and economic cost.

The pleated layers are normally two or three layers of woven wire mesh, together with inside perforated metal tube support. The outside layer of perforated metal tube is optional. The pleated multi-layer wire cloth filter layer offers extended filtration area and high dirt control capacities. Therefore, it is widely used in the field of medicament, food, petroleum, chemical and hydraulic oil filtration as well as water treatment, etc.

Each cylindrical filter element consists of a cylindrical perforated support structure. The filter media fits over the perforated support structure. We adopt stainless steel woven filter cloth as the filter media for efficient filtration while guaranteeing the adherence of the filter to the cloth. They are widely used in petroleum, plastics, electroplating, chemical, ceramics, sugar and other industries.
